Beskrivelse

This unique design only offered by Groovetracer allows the record spindle to be completely decoupled from the bearing axle to eliminate vibration transfer from the bearing thrust point to the record spindle.

The hub is machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum and the bearing axle is constructed from hardened (RC 62) and ground steel. The third component is the record spindle which is machined and polished from Stainless Steel. Following assembly, each subplatter is inspected for concentricity.

Groovetracer® takes pride in offering the smoothest running subplatters available to owners of Rega turntables seeking to improve upon the already fine playback performance offered by the Rega turntable.

«The improvements are immediately noticeable and equivalent to moving up to the next price class, and perhaps beyond. The soundstage snaps into focus with greater clarity. The noise floor drops substantially, along with surface noise, which is pushed deep into the background as it is on more expensive tables.»

– Ed Kobesky, Positive Feedback

«Here’s what makes the Groovetracer products the best: attention to detail and precision tolerances. The further out of round your platter and subplatter are, the more speed variation there will be along with increased wow and flutter.»

-Jeff Dorgay, ToneAudio

Reference – Top of the line in terms of performance. The non resonant interface with the platter separates it from the other subplatters in the line. It also incorporates a sapphire thrust plate (integral with the bearing shaft) that rotates on a zirconia (ZrO2) ball. This combination offers a superior low frictional interface that will last many years and produce an almost silent background for the music to emerge.

This jeweled bearing design only offered by Groovetracer® truly is a reference, and should you decide to purchase one, you can feel confident knowing you have chosen the best subplatter available for your Rega turntable.
